Game Thread 02/11: Pacers vs. Knicks

The Pacers now turn their attention to a rattled Knicks team. New York lost All-Star forward Kristaps Porzingis to a torn ACL on Tuesday, a devastating blow that seemingly shuts down any hope of a playoff berth this season. The Knicks will be rested, however, when they take on the Pacers. New York has not played since a 113-88 loss in Toronto on Thursday night.
After hosting the short-handed Knicks, the Pacers will travel to Brooklyn (19-37) on Wednesday. On paper, at least, it seems Indiana is set up to head into the All-Star break on a nice winning streak,
but they will have to take care of business on the court.

I know its very difficult to do, but we really need to win these next 5 games. Our schedule next month is pretty brutal and we need to win the games that we should win.

This has got to be a win. We need to head 3-0 in our last 3 games heading into the break, and that means beating the Knicks and Nets, which is perfectly achievable.

Great pass by Lance to Bogie for three.

I swear, we have probably shattered the record for fouling on 3 point shots.
It is ridiculous how often we do this.

I feel like Joe Young isn't getting the ball when he's in good position for a shot.

That's a good start to the third.

Oladipo is a basketball god.

I really don't like seeing Oladipo land on one leg off his dunks... he's done it like three times already.
Great dunks though.

can't believe we let them back into the game at the end of the 3rd.
need to continue to get out and run and let Dipo do his thing and wrap this up

I think Joe Young could be a rotation player next year.

Sabonis is like 0-6 while I’m watching the Gamecast. I’ll stop.

He has a right wrist injury that's limiting him. We're lucky that the right isn't his shooting hand. It still influences him but he can play at least.

He's struggling bad with the shot, maybe that hand bothering him.
